Westlyjames -- Most children are not allergic to chocolate; just ask the parents of the people you are inviting to the party & proceed accordingly. Unless a child is hyperallergenic to peanuts (can't even have chocolate made in a factory that also uses peanuts) you should be fine.
I've made this cake with two 9 inch circle cake pans (put one on top of the other and frost). It's sort of time consuming but looks great once it's done. I'd also recommend not putting the M&M's on too soon before eating as they get soft as time goes by. It's best to decorate and eat shortly after decorating. Just my opinion though as I've made this two different times. I've also made this as a 13x9 cake...looks very cute too.
